How to be a better girl #3: Start a YouTube channel

I The You Hey guys! It's Jhaycee and today I will be telling you how to start a YouTube channel!!


Step 1- decide your topic

Choose something you can do for a while. Make sure it's something you love. Don't be a beauty guru when you'd rather be a gamer instead! 

Step 2- Materials 

What type of camera will you use?? I find that your phone camera will work really well. You will also probably need a tripod, unless you have someone to film for you. You will also need a place to film. You will DEFINITELY need an editing software. If you are an IOS user, you can use iMovie. If you have another type of phone, you can use YouTube capture. On a Mac, you can use iMovie, and windows can use Windows movie maker. All this software is free!

Step 3- Build your identity 

Find a name, and stick with it. Make something original, like if your name is Sally and you want to be like MyLifeasEva, don't make your name MyLifeasSally, do something like SallyLivesTheLife! Also, don't use a lot of numbers, underscores, or symbols, for example, don't go with OMG_$ally_1244504. Nobody will remember that. If you don't know how to create your channel, YouTube has great vids on that. 

Step 4- Film your videos!!

This step is pretty self explanatory. Just take your time on editing. With your first video, Truro do something popular, like a look book or a tag. These are more popular so that means more people will watch your videos. 

Step 5- Upload and advertise!!

Try to make a schedule when you upload. That way people will know when to watch. Tell your friends and family you have a channel. That will lead to a chain reaction of subscribers!!

Thanks for reading!! That's it for now!! 

XOXO,

Jhaycee

DIY: Tumblr T-shirts


Hey guys!! It's Jhaycee! Sorry I haven't been on in a while, but I went to camp last week! So today, I will show you how to make those super chic Tumblr shirts without breaking the bank!

What you will need:

❤️ T-shirt or tank top 
❤️ Graphic Tranfer paper 
❤️Iron 
❤️Computer and printer

Step 1: Find the image 

First you need to find what you are going to put on your shirt. If your shirt is not white, try to make it a png file. Paste it into pic monkey or Microsoft word.  

Step 2: Print the image

Print the image on your transfer paper, following the instructions on the package. Most packages call for your image to be reversed. Test print on a regular sheet of paper before using the transfer paper.

Step 3: Iron on the Image

Follow the directions on your package to iron on the image. Peel it off, and you're done!!

That's all for now!!

XOXOXO,

Jhaycee
